Overview
About this vessel
L'EQUIPE is an exceptional Little Harbor 53 center-cockpit sailing yacht crafted by the iconic Ted Hood. Blending blue-water performance with unparalleled luxury, this yacht features a reduced rig height that makes her ICW-friendly (Intercoastal Waterway). She boasts an extensive equipment list and a rich history of recent updates.
Accommodations & Luxury Interior
The yacht features a premium-grade hand-crafted teak joinerwork paired with timeless teak and holly cabin soles. The main saloon features a deep circular seating area to starboard around a custom teak dining table, a portside settee/berth, three Lexan hull ports on each side for an open feel, and an integrated 20-bottle wine locker.
The master stateroom aft is configured with oversized twin berths to port and starboard, a central settee, and cedar-lined hanging lockers. The master head features marble countertops and an electric toilet.
Forward guest quarters offer two distinct guest cabins featuring upper/lower bunk arrangements, served by an electric guest head.
The walk-through galley is outfitted with Grunert 110v AC refrigeration/freezer compressors, a Frigoboat 12V secondary cooling unit, a separate bar fridge, a 4-burner stainless steel Force 10 propane stove with oven, a double stainless sink, and dedicated microwave and toaster spaces.
A full-sized navigation station features an aft-facing nav desk adjacent to the companionway, with deep storage, full electrical panel access, and comprehensive helm instrumentation. A massive forward storage locker in the fore'c'sle serves as a tool shop, complete with a vise, power tools, shore power adapters, and a dedicated paint locker.
